Re: NERDS at Battlecry...

NERD looks like it's going to be revealed exactly one day before IRI...any significance to this date?

Fun with acronyms. There I am, thinking, n.e. = non-engineering, but alas I think it must be new england.

Re: NERDS at Battlecry...

Is it just me or is everyone forgeting the 'S' in NERDS?

New England Robotic Defensive Strategies

All those who contribute to the defensive "strategies" will be Nerds.

Re: NERDS at Battlecry...

You'll notice that on the official NERD logo there is no S. I think "S" in the URL is just there to make a phrase "NERDs FIRST."

w00t my Las Gurillas (469) post!

In every post but the Q+A post on the second page of the NERDS thread, Andy refers to it as 'NERDS'. The Q+A and post is a bit more official seeming, and you bring up a good point with the logo (NERD)...
Upon the preceding review I retract my previous statements and drop the 'S' off of what I believe to be the acronym Nerd(S).--NERD

So now for what I think NERD is stadning for ... I have no clue...
Just another reason to look ofrward to IRI!

Re: NERDS at Battlecry...

Is there about to be a change to the site Andy? According to http://www.nerdsfirst.org/gfx/ you uploaded a smaller version of the logo just yesterday. Is it already on a page that we haven't found? Or has the page just not been added yet? You may think you're sneaky but don't forget that you are surrounded by robotics NERDs with nothing better to do than snoop around your site

Edit: Ouch, the site's been blocked I knew I should have waited for more information before revealing that I had found it...
